Larger wheels raise car?

So i lowered my car on tein s-techs and am now putting kyb shocks on them. But i still have the stock 14's that come with the car {well i think they are 14's} my friend told me that if i get 16's it will raise the car a little, is this true?

You have to keep the same ratio. Other things to consider (other then the car looking retarded with normal profile tires on 15-17's) is when you go to a bigger tire that isn't the same (realitive) diameter is your speedometer will read alot slower then what you are actually going. Same thing if you get a lower profile tire ratio then your OEM wheels, your speedometer will read faster then what your going.
